Yesterday, Rubio told the media, "The armed civilian militias in Venezuela set up roadblocks to inspect vehicles, looking for American citizens or evidence of U.S.-backed arrests of Maduro. The security situation in Venezuela remains volatile, and I advise American citizens in Venezuela to evacuate immediately!"

[Sarcastic] After causing trouble, the U.S. military uses citizen safety as a cover for interference. Rubio's threat to have the Venezuelan civilian militias arrest American citizens and call for their evacuation is actually a farce of shifting blame after the U.S. military's cross-border capture of Maduro, replicating the old Monroe Doctrine tactics used in 1989 when Noriega was forcibly taken. The so-called security risks were actually triggered by U.S. military invasion, but the U.S. is now slandering the Venezuelan civilian militias' efforts to protect the country. The U.S. has long viewed Latin America as its backyard, from invading Nicaragua in 1856, to seizing 4.9 billion SDRs in assets from Venezuela and taking 50 million barrels of oil, all under the guise of security.

The Venezuelan civilian militias setting up checkpoints are defending sovereignty, while the U.S. frequently bypasses the United Nations to wage war, discarding international law like trash. Rubio's warning is merely an excuse for subsequent intensified interference, using citizen safety to mask hegemony. This double standard has long been seen through by Latin American countries!
